Kentucky Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce

My Mother talked about how she missed her Mom's Bread Pudeding which was warm, rich and comforting. This was during the depression era. My Grandmother did not leave a recipe. I wanted my beloved Mother to have this nostalgic treat.After much research I came up with a delicious dish. For my Mom's birthday she always wanted this instead of cake.My Mom passed away in 1990 and I always think that both she and my Grandmother were inspirational for this recipe.

KENTUCKY BREAD PUDDING:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place bread pieces in a large mixing bowl. Place milk over bread and let soak for about 10 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients and mix well. Pour into a greased two quart baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes at 350 degrees or until top is goldlen brown. Serve with warm Bourbon Sauce. Six servings.
